Positive or Negative

you decide...

Walking up 104 stairs several times a day (yes it is the 4th floor but it has 26 steps per floor not typical 13)

Watching your package flush down the toilet to assure it is gone

Everyone saying they understand what you are saying becuase they are too "polite"

Umbrellas in the rain (with proper use)
Umbrellas in the sun

Scooters on the sidewalks

Crossing signals ("is more what you'd call guidelines than rules", Pirates of the Caribbean)

Meandering roaming pace that does not allow people to pass (walkways, jogging trails, etc.)

Heads of fish in soups

The school street crossing guards stop traffic for me (ex-pat) but not the students.

Rice with vegetables and bone-in chicken

Emails from students after 10PM at night or on weekends

Not being able to communicate in the local language

Being able to communicate in universal sign language (not the actual language)

Directional signs that stop before you have arrived

Dogs in baby bjorns, strollers, and purses

Online banking in a foreign language

7 11 on every corner

When you knock on a bathroom door to see if it is vacant they knock back

Forced fun
